i am at the stage where i need to export the map as a jms but i can not. so i got chimp and that still did not work. i ran the script then went to file export but it will only alow me to export it as a p3d or somthing.

did you read the instructions it came with? cus im sure u didnt, wat u have to do is
----------------------------------------
GMax Usage Instructions (Jms Exporter)
----------------------------------------
1) Select the 'Listener Window' Option
2) Press the 'Export Halo Map' button
3) When the process is complete you need to run the supplied 'GrabListener.exe' Program. Ensure that you only have one copy of GMax running when you do so.
4) Save the Listener data to your Halo\Data\Levels\Test\YourMapName\Models folder as YourMapName.jms
5) Open YourMapName.jms in your favorite text editor and remove everything before and including the line '***** Begin Jms *****'. Then goto to bottom of the file and delete everything after and including the line '***** End Jms *****'. Save YourMapName.jms
6) You should now be able to compile your map into a scenario using tool

choose the utilities icon sort of in the top right corner of gmax the one that looks like a hammer
then click max script and then run script and choose chimp then scroll down to the catagory chimp:jms exporter, under it choose the listener window bubble and uncheck the write debug info bubble
then select the export halo structure button
when thats done open the grablistner that came with chimp
navigate to ur maps directory folder for example "data\levels\testmap\models and save it in the models folder
now u have ur map as a jms
